From Côte d'Ivoire to Cymru - Joseff Gnagbo campaiging for Cymraeg and indywales, 14/11/23. Series 5 Episode 28

Joseff Gnagbo is the new Chair of Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg (the Welsh Language Society - the radical pressure group which fought and won language status like roadsigns, S4C and Welsh language laws). But Joseff isn't Welsh - he's a journalist and academic and political activist from Côte d'Ivoire in west Africa who was given political asylum and found himself in Cardiff in 2018. In the capital he learnt Welsh and now teaches Welsh as a second language to adults - including asylum seekers. He spoke to Siôn Jobbins of Radio YesCymru about his life in Wales, his support for the Welsh language and Welsh independence and the similarities which he saw with his homeland and adopted country. * Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg - http://cymdeithas.cymru * Melin Drafod pro indendence left wing think tank - http://melindrafod.cymru * Y Sŵn - movie about the Gwynfor Evans, and the successful campaign for S4C - https://www.s4c.cymru/en/drama/y-swn/ * Learn Welsh - https://learnwelsh.cymru/ * Oasis Centre, Cardiff - https://www.oasiscardiff.org/ * American Youtuber, Ari Smith, (@Xiaomanyc) speaking Welsh on the street in Cardiff - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dp-QCiACGAU Other link - American learner: https://youtu.be/dp-QCiACGAU?si=VC52fJhy3e9GHaiz
